Caps also didn't work as well as cursing

I dont know what really happened here. Maybe his curse word did prompt a block, maybe something else caused the block. But to be honest I've been cursing a lot to Claude Code, im migrating a website from WordPress to NextJS. And regard

It was fine when it started, it's the addition of useEffect and hooks that messed everything up. Although normaly I prefer functional, for react classes were 100 times better

by wouldbecouldbe 9mo ago
I feel like the main challenge is where to be "loose" and where to be "strict", Claude takes too much liberty often. Assuming things, adding some mock data to make it work, using local storage because there is no db. Thi

yeah AI is perfect at refactor and cleaning things up, you just have to instruct it. I've improved my code significanlty by asking it to clean up, refactor function to pure that I can use & test over a messy application. Without cr

You are assuming a lot of things. The work was moving the many landing pages & content elements to NextJS, so we can test, iterate and develop faster. While having a more stable system. This was a 10 year old website, with a very large

Developers that can’t see the change are blind. Just this week, sun-tue. I added a fully functional subscription model to an existing platform, build out a bulk async elasticjs indexing for a huge database and migrated a very large Wordpres

Ahh from one dark corner to another; filling up the jira backlog

I’ve tried those as well, they only take easy cases you can do yourself as well

Everybody looks on Google for services; or ChatGPT googles/bings it for them. Still the same. We had a 10x jump just last month for my own company. For bigger company I consult with we had stable revenue last 2 years even though search

Google ads are very time & location dependent, the fact that it's showing to you might be a bad sign since you are most likely not close to Durban and this seems like an ad you only want to run locally.

It seems to mostly ignore Claude.md

All I use is curse words and it does a damn great job most of the time

An instant drop in 50% means something else is off. The shift to llm's has been happening already for the last years. Its more likely their your ranking dropped. Or a competitor got ahead of you. Google is still main source of leads fo

On paper yes, but every time my flight was delayed in EU the airlines (KLM, Lufthansa, RyanAir) always had a cop out, weather, airport issues, etc. and I didn't get compensated. Even though other planes managed to fly in the same condi

Yeah had so many discussion with senior developers in my life to argue for just keeping things simple, but my god they love abstractions. They are clearly always very smart and understand the code base well. Maybe it’s their intelligence wa

I remember using Laravel a while back and it had quite some magic but it was done right and made a lot of things much easier

Ryanair does lots of shitty things, but I dont see why an airline should be forced to resell to shitty agencies taking a an unecessary cut instead of consumers buying directly with the Airline.

Yeah I think the real values is for the Solo developers, indie hackers & side projects. Being unrestrained by team protocols, communications, jira boards, product owners, grumpy seniors. They can now deliver much more mature platforms,

Trying to understand what this means. Did the bad route cause an overload? Was there a code error on that route that wasn’t spotted? Was it a code issue or an instance that broke?

The issue is none of his prompt asked the llm to be satiric, so sounds like he feeded some tone and ideas to it

by wouldbecouldbe 10mo ago
This doesn’t sound like Gemini at all, it’s very bland and business like. Suspect your prompt contains more to ask it to be in a certain style.

The solo projects I do are 10x, the team projects I do maybe 2-3x in productivity. I think in big companies it's much much less. Highest gains are def in full stack frameworks (like nextjs), with Database ORM, and building large featur

Yeah i don't think it's worth doing for every web app. But I do think it's fair that for instance government websites try to meet these criteria.

yeah but at least sit next to the blind person, I've heard so many people talk about aria tags (myself included) without actually trying it once themselves or at least seeing a video how impaired people actually use it.

I don't think there are is an issue with finding ways to extend life. But there is an issue with people clinging to life out of attachment; part of getting older is accepting change & the flow of things.

by wouldbecouldbe 10mo ago
yeah its a real challenge, but probably the only way to really understand it. It's a completely different way of using the web. GPT can really help understand it while doing it.

Not a joke. If truly you want a properly functioning website for blind/bad sight/ Step 1 would probably be to put on a blindfold and go through your website with a screenreader (cmd + f5 on a mac).

There are many node/js alternatives, nice to have one for the Python devs

Developers always on their high horse, if after years of trying different options it didnt happen, maybe that means it's not what the world wants or need?
